What is the going labor rate for a AOD to 5 speed swap on a fox?

What about parts?

Thank you,

Eric

I did one years back for roughly $650
If you do it right by selling your AOD provided it's in good working order it ends up being pretty cheap.

Thanks for the quick response. Any idea on actual 5 speed part costs?

Thanks,

Eric

If I still lived in California I'd be the t5 swap headquarters..
I think $400 for labor is insane..
but I guess that's why I don't pay for labor
